Bank of UnAmerica. Not only are their business practices crap but they do every little thing to annoy me as a user. It super convoluted to setup autopay. Also, they only support 2FA with SMS rather than being able to use a TOTP app.
The Empire of Lies is built entirely on the foundation of lying by omission. If the media doesn't talk about it, it doesn't exist for most people.
I love this. I've always thought that the solar punk aesthetic failed to reflect the raw and dirty nature that is human expansion. I think the generative quality of man is often undermined, a deeply ingrained aspect of our anglo culture (Malthusianism). The "green" movement is right that consumption is outpacing production but we're supposed to believe that somehow humanity is simply going to choose to consume less and cut back on everything rather than opening the flood gates of the forces of production, guided by human ingenuity. Though the author may be disinclined to accept the fact that China is probably the most terrapunk country on the planet. Are there any other countries as pro-growth as China? The People's Republic is still going strong on "fossil" fuels while also investing heavily into nuclear. I see large industrial megastructures in China that make me (an American) feel like we are slipping into "developing" world territory by comparison. I recommend anyone else captured by this "movement" or aesthetic to look at the art of Fan Wenan and what he has termed "Peoplepunk".
